This time in 2019, I'd been subsisting mainly on oatmeal and water for a year because my body refused to process anything else without giving me anaphylaxis.

As you can imagine, I developed a severe sensory issue with them and refused to eat them for a while. The fact that I could do that was a testament to how quickly my body righted itself once my mast cell dysfunction was adequately treated.

That I can no longer eat them because they've become a diverticulitis trigger food almost feels like irony, though I know that's not the word I'm looking for.

Mostly I'm just vaguely sad that the food that kept me alive at one of the bleakest points of my life is something I can no longer have, but also thankful I don't need it anymore because I have other options.

I don't know where I'm going with this. I'm just having a lot of emotions as I clear out my pantry for the new year and found a box of expired oats at the back.

Two weeks ago, it was expired benadryl. This week it's expired oats.

Things are improving. I need to remember that. Even when the brain weasels say otherwise. Things have improved. They are improving. Hope beats eternal, and all that.

The infantilization of having restricted eating is crazy, I get treated like a kid on a regular basis by people who were treating me normal five seconds earlier just because of my sandwich order.

I have sat at a restaurant meeting while I was a hostess where all my coworkers laughed at how plain the food on the kids menu was and how kids had no taste and they were so glad they weren’t like that anymore. At the same job people questioned my orders when I got food at the end of a shift saying it was barely even the same thing anymore and wouldn’t I like something else? If I had wanted something else I would have asked for it, you don’t need to double check and use baby voice with me I’m fully capable of deciding what I eat.

I get judgmental looks and questions from people who take my food orders in public more and more often as I get older and it’s less socially acceptable for me to say no vegetables on things without being treated like a spoiled child who’s inconveniencing them. People look at me in surprise and ask if they heard right, scoff, roll their eyes etc. on a pretty regular basis.

When I need to send back food after someone makes a mistake on my order and I can’t eat it my family acts like they’re embarrassed of me and sometimes when I’m not paying they refuse to let me. I will go hungry every time and have been made to often as well.

For years school trips and meals with other peoples families were a terrifying ordeal and still give me anxiety. I was denied desert and sometimes the meal as a whole for not eating even though I asked what was being made ahead of time so I knew if I should eat before hand or bring something else and even knowing this people ignored it and changed meal plans to try and pressure me into eating more variety.

The worst part of all of this is that I wish I could eat everything other people can but sometimes the smell or look of food I don’t like on someone else’s plate is enough to make me feel sick, the thought of putting it in my mouth for any reason is unimaginable.

And maybe the whole “they’ll eat if they’re hungry enough” thing works at a certain point but I lived off beef jerky, raisins, and half a bagel for four days on a school trip where no one bothered to accommodate my eating restrictions and I would’ve gone much longer before eating what was offered.

I had a teacher who kept me in for six recesses in a row over me not trying a bite of food we cooked in class in third grade purely because they were annoyed and took it on themself to step into something that wasn’t their business.

I regularly get guilted and called out on my unhealthy diet and it hurts because I would do anything to be able to eat more foods, I hope that maybe I will in the future, but right now it’s not an option. I’m hoping if I find a good smoothie recipe I can get more fruits and vegetables in my diet but even then I won’t ever be in a position to just eat what is served and I shouldn’t have to endure judging and being treated like a child by random strangers who have no business in what I want the food I’m paying for to have on it.

It’s valid for adults to have restricted eating too, it doesn’t make us children, and it’s not a moral failing. It’s also not anyone else’s business.

I’m back babes and i’m ready to be skinny once and for all 🤘🏼

To keep me motivated here are some updated reasons for becoming skinny:

- To look good in any piece of clothing… literally anything

- So I look tiny next to my boyfriend

- So his hoodies are oversized on me and not perfectly fitting

- So i’m prettier than a friend of mine that everyone fawns over

- So my boyfriend can effortlessly pick me up and throw me around

- So I never feel self conscious about my body, I can throw on anything and look stylish because let’s face it, skinny IS an accessory.

- So my boobs aren’t massive and I can go braless in cute lil tank tops

- So I won’t feel giant in shorts this summer

- People will overall treat me better (i’ve experienced this first hand it’s crazy)

- Concern from others, my ED will be validated…

- CUTE LIL WORKOUT SETS

- So I can wear hightop shoes/boots and it won’t look like I have cankles

- When in a group of friends and we all pile into a car they will suggest I sit in the middle because i’m small

- Being referred to as “the tiny one”

- BIKINI PICS THIS SUMMER

- So I can be that skinny gorgeous gal at the gym doing cardio that everyone envies

Also I have NOBODY I can talk to about this stuff so if anyone wants to be friends pls don’t be shy :)

I can’t believe I let myself gain so much weight back

Like all of that progress I made just got thrown out in the fucking trash

I was so happy when I hit my lw I let it get to my head and ruined it

But I will get back down, and go even lower

I just have to get back on track

My favourite hobby is making sure all my family and friends don't fall into bad eating habits while my own eating habits are a literal dumpster fire :)
